RadiXplore is using its Xplor platform to mine decades of underused historical exploration data, aiming to improve discovery rates as new greenfield finds become scarcer and drilling costs rise. Co-founders Russel Menezes and Teryne Young are applying machine learning and pattern-recognition workflows to legacy geochemical assays, drill logs and geophysical surveys to re‑rank targets without commissioning new campaigns. For geologists and explorers, the approach could shift budgets from broad regional drilling to data-driven infill and re-interpretation of existing tenements.

ABAX has launched ABAX Tachograph to bring 2.5–3.5‑tonne light commercial vehicles into compliance with the EU Mobility Package’s Smart Tachograph 2 (SMT2) rules taking effect on 1 July for international transport. The system integrates LCVs and existing HGVs on a single Smart Operations platform, adding automated tachograph data downloads, violation analysis and driver data management rather than a separate standalone unit. ABAX is targeting fleets facing the 2026 full compliance deadline, aiming to simplify cross‑border operations and reduce manual admin around drivers’ hours enforcement.

Liebherr is rolling out its expanded MyLiebherr Performance and MyLiebherr Maintenance digital services for earthmoving and material handling fleets in Australia, the UK, Ireland, Canada and the USA, with six months’ free access. The maintenance module gives workshop managers a fleet-wide status overview with traffic light condition coding, cause-specific alerts (e.g. upcoming services, low fluid levels), machine-level service histories and geo-tracked locations to plan bundled interventions. The performance module tracks utilisation, idle hours, fuel consumption versus a global average, and weighing data, enabling group comparisons by machine type or operation to tighten scheduling and cut operating costs.
